How to split a PDF

Break a PDF into separate files by page range or into individual pages.

  1. Open the Split PDF tool

    Visit makemypdf.com/split-pdf.

  2. Upload your PDF

    Drop the PDF onto the upload area or click to browse.

  3. Choose a split mode

    Select either "every page" (each page becomes its own PDF) or "page ranges" (e.g. 1-3, 5, 7-10).

  4. Click Split

    The tool generates the output files in-browser and bundles them into a ZIP archive.

  5. Download the ZIP

    Unzip to get each individual PDF.

Frequently asked questions
Does splitting happen on your servers?

No. The ZIP is generated locally.

What syntax can I use for page ranges?

Use commas to separate ranges and hyphens to indicate spans, e.g. "1-3, 5, 7-10". Single pages and multiple ranges are supported.

Why is the output a ZIP file?

Splitting produces multiple PDFs. A ZIP keeps them bundled in one download so nothing gets lost.

Can I split a password-protected PDF?

Not directly — unlock the PDF first with the Unlock PDF tool, then run the split.
